Slow Mirror: mirror.sr.unh.edu

[Michael Cronenworth]

I was trying to install OpenOffice.org on a fresh F14 machine and 
encountered a very slow mirror (mirror.sr.unh.edu). Yum was averaging 
85kb/sec speed. The machine downloading can easily pull 25mbit/sec in a 
speed test. Anyone else encountered this?

The mirror's page says that they are only using 7% of their bandwidth, 
so it doesn't seem like they're overloaded. I know Matt sometimes 
frequents this list, so if you see this, this is an FYI.

More likely than not, there's a bottleneck somewhere between you and them.

I'm getting about 100KBytes/sec from them too, from a few different
places.  I'll ask their admin.  Thanks for the alert.
